THE GOVERNOES LATEST VETOES.

When the High-License bill was before him
Governor Hill was filled with indignation at
the unnecessary increase in the number of laws
enacted each year. This evil he declared to be
the result of special legislation, and to put
stop to it was his excuse for vetoing that cX-
cellent measure. But row that he has disposed
of all the bills before him, it is found that he
has approved PA an increase Of Al over last
year. His talk about special legislation was
simply temporary disguise, and thin one at
that. for serving his friends the hquor-dealers.
One of the most important general bills
passed by The Legslatuie-that providing for
uniform system of licensing teachcrs-haS
been vetoed. This measure was recommended
by the former Democratic Superintendent OF
Public instruction, as well as by the present
Republican incumbent; but the Governors fear
that it might be of political advantage to the
Republicans has led him to withhold his ap-
proyal. He gives, of course another reason.
but decidedly poor one. He says that it puts
the licensing of teachers in the hands of the
State Superintendent instead of the local au-
tborities. This is not correct. The Supcr1n-
tendent would have the power to fix a uniform
standard. but the local authorities would cor
duct the examinations and issue the licenses as
before, only they could not issue license eN.
ccpt the applicant came up to the required
standard 1t would have put an end to favor
itism and to the sale of licenses, and to many
other evils that exist under the loose methods
now followed Newly ok and Brooklyn were
allowed 10 fix a higher standard than that oil
the State Superintendent, if the local author
tiles so decided. For the Governor to give
that as an excuse for vetoing measure OF sucb
vital importance TO the school system OF the
State is preposterous. His veto OF the " BUCK
ct Shop Tax bill was equally indefensible.
This measure was directly III the line of his
recommendation for legislation ito relieve the
people from the burdens of increased direct
taxation.' This Tax bill and the Vedder bill
would have saved the people millions OF dollars
which will now have to be raised by direct
taxation.
The Governors approval of the Subway biz
is something to be thankful for. The work
of putting the wires underground can now be
pushed forward. The Hotel Fire Escape biz
and that for indcxing records under the block
system are also good measures that have been
approved. Fortunately the bill to permit the
military to parade in Central Park has been
killed. If the Governor had served III the
same way the bill to provide free water 10
various private institutions it would have becp
more to his credit Taken altogether, his
action on the bills left in his hands by the
Legislature will not leneft him in the eyes
Of the public.

4 JUDICIAL ANAL. SIS OF LOVE.


The bodest Judge on the American Bench
lives and prcsides over District Court in
Colorado This intrepid jurist has projected
a shock Of surprise and admiration through
the votarics Of Themis bydelivering decision
in which he has entered upon a cool and dis
passionate analysis of love. This is how it
came about: A certain man sought divorce
from his wife, and the recovery OF some
property which he had conveyed to her. He
was a wealthy miner When he married her
Inc gave her property, and this he did not seek
TO recover. But he charged that she presently
became cnamored Of another man, and excited
his (thc husband's) jealousy. Then she set
herself 10 allay his suspicion, and so whccdlcd
him that he not only put away the green eyed
monster but conveyed more property to her.
Having secured all she could get, he said she
deserted him. and so in seeking a divorce he
set up the claim that she ought to be made to
restore the second gift as having been OBJ.
tanned under false pietenccs to wit. that she
loved him at the time. Now the learned Judge
who sat in the trial Of the case held that the
marrow Of the issue was the actual state Of
the wifcs feelings toward her husband at the
time she persuaded him TO make the second
settlement upon her, and to thcsclucidation of
this lSnotty point he bent all his powers.
He finally reached the conclusion that the
property claimed by the husband ought TO
be restored to him, and in support Of this dc
cision he infinitely analyses the state of mind
in which the wife must have been when she
cajoled the man she already intended TO de
sert -"Thc evidence satisfies the count" the
judge says, "that after that time this feeling
which is described by the defendant herself n
love and affection, but which the court cannot
say was love and affection but only federation
simply liberation Of the presence Of tho
man in view of the fact that he was her hus
band-that this feeling had been undergoing
somewhat Of change, the feeling Of tolera-
ton growing into gradual indifference to him
and his interests. and this growing in degrees
until il passed the line Of indifference and be-
came dislike, and ripened from that into an
upathy and disgust and despair; and that

THE PORTES NEW IMPORTANCE.

The Porte is evidently flattered by the at
tcntion it has suddenly attracted in Europe.
For a long time Constantinople has been neg
lected by the Powers, and 1t emerges from
obscurity with a feeling of relief and genuine
pleasure. During the war OF the Crinea ana
in Lord Beaconsfcld's day, it was the diplo-
matte centre Of the Continent. Every great
European Power was represented at the Sui
tan's court by the most capable and brilliant
diplomat in service. Historic conferences were
held within its palaces, and the fate of South
eastern Europe was decided under the shadow
Of that crumbling, worm-eatcn throne. The
circle of Pachas who have counsened the
Sultan in important crises used 10 have the
proud consciousness of being prominent figures
on the Continent: but their importance has
steadily declined since the Congress of Berlin.
How refreshing after this period OF neglect
and self elfacemeDt must be the evidences OF
the Porte's returning power and influence
Three of the great Powers are intriguing
simultaneously for the functions Of confidential
adviser and patron. England, France and
Russia arc each importuning tho Sultan to
follow It's counsel, to distaust all other rivals
| and to accept it's protection. If threats are
mingled WIN inc SOuCitiliohh IL uoeS INV hia'~
ter. for the Porte in the days Of its departed
greatness was accustomed to menaces from
every quarter. Threats and promises alike
indicate a revival of Turkish influence in
Europcan politics, and ConstantiBople thrills
anew with its old time spirit Of intrigue
| The immediate result Of this renewal Of
activity Is the adoption by the Porte of its
favorite and traditional policy-iraction and
delay. The Egyptian Convention was TO have
| been signed today, and the English Ambassa-
dor has been most urgent in his demand that
ratification should not be deferred The Porte
| at the last moment has required and obtained
an extension of time. Russia has been pro
testing against the convention and possibly
threatening to seize another section Of Armenia
in compensation for the unsettled war indem-
nifty. France has been warning the Porte
against the encroachnents of England, and
either menacing it with military Intervention
in Syria or attempting TO whcedle it by vague
promises Of future support and protection. The
rumor goes that the Sultan emboldened- by
these countcr-demonstrations has deemed it
prudent to remind England of the conditions
under which Cyprus was acquired. The con
ycntion Of 1873 embodied defensive ALI
ance. England formally agreed to defend the
Sultan's territories in Asia Minor. He is now
represented as putting tho incisiye question {:
q Is this pledge 10 be kopti' Whether these
rumors are well or i'll founded, the Porte has
recourse to it, familiar expedient OF delay.
The ratification Of the convention is postponed

are not abused Boys and unskilfm riders
should be restrained from making nuisances
of themselves on the crowded park roads,
and the bost Of riders will probably
perceive that for their own safety
it lie unwise to rush in among the throng or
swlft-moving horses and carriages on the East
Drive. The bicycle is obtaining the recogni-
ton due to it, but the increasing number OF
those interested in it should display prudent
conservatism in exercising their rights.
Out of Jacob Sharp's formidable array OF
lawyers Mr.. John L. Parsons was selected TO
present the side of tho defence to the jury.
In making this choice no mistake was cont
mitted. Mr.. Parsons talked for over four
hours yesterday, using all the arts of the able
pleader of which he is passed master. 1t
need not be said that he put the case in the
strongest possible way If words alone weio
to tell with the jury Sharps chances might be
better than they are. But facts arc necessary
The chain . of crcumstantial evidence pre-
scented by the District Attorney appears strong
ard complete. A little over ten days was
occupied by the prosecution, the actual open
ing of the trial occurring on June 10, although
the impanelling Of the jury began on May lo.
How much more time will be consumed no one
can tell. The defendants health seems to be
really bad. and the public may be prepared to
hear from his lawyers that the prosecutors are

dominant passion-hate toward him. utter
dislike. utter disgust; and that then she con-
cciyed the design that she would obtain from
him all that was possible and then desert

poipt the court for the first time shows some
timidity. for it proceeds AS mere moral
matter the court does not look upon that rs
ANYTHING particularly dark and hcinous-that
i this change of heart from liberation to
dislike, The court acutely observes that
such changes are beyond control or analysis.
Even philosophers " cannot trace them, and
they arc entirely Independent OF the will. The
something in operation is "indefnable," and
Mainly teyond the jurisdiction of the court.
So no inhibition is put upon the feelings OF
wives toward their husbands. 1t is only
when objective purposes grow out oil such
feelings that the law has anything to say
The Colorado judge indeed goes so far as
"a express doubt whether misunderstanding
may not he @cxcusablc on moral grounds"
and most husbands with property VIII bc app

upon legal grounds tie court cannot allow the
